Iksar vs Human Monk in tanking

[Yardcore]

Given both of them have same high-end gears (fungi, NoS, Tstaff, etc.....).

Which class is better at taking damage? I know that end game isn't really mattered, but I am planning to level or solo from level 1.

I am leaning toward Iksar at the moment. According to the Monk's guide, I am planning to put 10 in str and 10 in stam, or maybe even 20 in stam. Iksar hp regen and AC boost is the big plus to me for pulling and FD/Regen.

I think I'm making the right decision, but it was 10 years since I played Monk [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Iksars have those bonuses and human's dont. Would think that makes iksars a easy choice.

Iksar endgame has I think 16-18 more hp regen and ac bonus. Only down side is exp penalty and kos everywhere. If time isnt an issure I would deff roll iksar. If you have a low playtime or your first character I would go human( liked most places, so you can bank easier and make some money

iksar, and put points into sta. with basic gear and buffs you'll find it very easy to cap str, and with decent gear and buffs you'll cap dex/agi as well.

if you roll a human monk with kunark out you might be retarded

Iksar is simply better. Only reason you should choose human is for experience. And being kos everywhere is not an issue whatsoever. Hardly a fraction of what so many people make of it.
